带着女儿上班节

4月(April) 27日在英国是“带着女儿去上班节”。这个节日起源于美国。1994年传入英国，它已成为11至15岁之间女孩的特殊节日。那一天，成千上万的女孩休假一天(take a day off)，与父亲或母亲一起(together)去他们的工作场所。这个节日的目的(purpose)是让女孩开阔眼界，让她们相信自己(believe in themselves)。

很多年来，人们认为男孩在社会中(in society)可以比女孩做得更好，但实际上，女孩可以像男孩一样做她们想做的任何工作，无论是飞行员(pilot)、护士还是经理(manager)都可以。在这个特殊的日子(on this special day)，女孩可以近距离地观察她们的父母在做什么，这可能会有助于女孩在选择工作时增加自信。

学校和许多公司也认为这项活动(activity)很有用。伦敦北部的格林女子中学已经把这一天作为教育的必要组成部分了。

15岁的加莱纳就读于格林中学，她去了她妈妈的律师事务所(law office)．她发现看她妈妈工作很有意思。她一直有步入法律界的想法，她想可能以后她会像妈妈一样工作。

如果家长相信他们的女儿，在工作中、在家里都为她们树立榜样会对她们有很大帮助。 “带女儿去上班节”无疑是朝正确的方向(in the right direction)迈进了一步。
